Trump’s rhetoric in final campaign sprint goes to new dark extremes

Donald Trump’s rhetoric dropped to a spine-tingling new low this weekend with less than a month before the Iowa caucuses.

The GOP primary front-runner said migrants are “poisoning the blood” of the US and quoted Russian President Vladimir Putin about the “rottenness” of American democracy.

Whipping up thousands of supporters at a New Hampshire hockey rink on Saturday, the former president again drew comparisons to the language of Nazi Germany with the comments about migrants from mostly Africa, Asia and South America “poisoning the blood of our country.”

The language “parrots Adolf Hitler,” President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign alleged. Experts pointed to passages in Hitler’s manifesto “Mein Kampf” in which the future dictator called for racial purity and said German blood was being “poisoned” by Jews.

Trump has used the line previously, in an interview with a conservative news outlet, and bringing it out for a rally suggests he could be adding it to his routine.

He drew criticism last month for describing his political rivals as “vermin,” another term that has antisemitic connotations and was employed in Nazi rhetoric.

It’s the repetition of these lines, after their fascist roots are called out, that is more chilling than their first utterance.

You are still harping on “mean Trump” You know who he is, I know who he is, everyone knows who he is.

I would much rather have a street fighter with a spine than a milquetoast apologetic door mat.

It’s about time the Republicans had someone that is actually willing to fight for them.

Damn right he needs to be that brutal. They are certainly that brutal to him...and more.

The days of George Bush are well in the rear-view mirror.

And as for critiquing Trump? Have at it. Just understand when I see people here parroting the same tired far left lunatic talking points about Trump?

Expect a truck load from me. I’m going to call it out each and every time.

“Dark extremes”, like the new Obama movie ‘Civil War’ that makes Americans and whites out to be terrorists and genocidal maniacs???

If that's what keeps them awake at night, I'm fine with it.

I live in the middle of a forest, about 12 miles from the nearest town (population 1100 on a busy day), it gets darker than a black cat in a coal mine here during the night.

I have never found the darkness to be particularly “SCARY”, what’s up with democrats that they are all AFRAID OF THE DARK?
